WooCommerce Meta Snippets don´t generate automatically

Hi Max,

Can you please check when the Google cache was updated for that page?
1. https://i.rankmath.com/9q6X0H
2. https://i.rankmath.com/R8N0Uh

If the cache date is from before adding the new meta description, then you just have to wait for Google to re-crawl and re-index the page with the new info. If the date is after you made the changes, the next step is to check if your title/description is properly set up in the page source:

You can use this tool for the same as well: https://www.heymeta.com/

If it matches your settings, there is nothing else you can do as Google shows the title/description tag according to the search intent.

The best you can do is optimize your meta tags to try and match the intent of the search/keyword.

Hi Max,

This is the order we follow to generate meta descriptions for WooCommerce product:
1. Content from SEO Description field
If that is missing, then:
2. WooCommerce Excerpt or Product Short Description
If that is missing, then:
3. Template From General Settings in WordPress Dashboard > Rank Math > Titles & Meta > Products
If that is missing, then:
4. Auto generated Content from the product page

You can use this filter to override WC excerpt and use the Global template https://rankmath.com/kb/filters-hooks-api-developer/#use-global-meta-description

Hope that helps and please do not hesitate to let us know if you need our assistance with anything else.

Hi there,

Thanks for the follow up.

The code shared by my colleague will only work on the frontend and thus you won’t see the changes on the preview when editing your products.

Please inspect your product pages using the browser’s developer tools and check if the description has taken effect.

Thank you.
